| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? I also have a Supratek preamp and it is really good! | |
| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? I have several preamps, among them Coincident Statement, Cary SLP-98 and a LTA mz-2. My favorite is my Dodd audio preamp. Might be hard to find, but well worth it. It is dead quiet! | |
| FirstWatt SIT-3 or Pass Labs XA25 for Avalon Indras? I have both the SIT-3 and the XA-25. The XA-25 is sitting in a box... but it depends on the speaker. I'm using it with my Klipsch speakers. If I owned a set of Harbeth's my hunch is the SIT-3 would be in the box. Unscientifically I'd say the XA 25... | |
| How Long Should a First Watt SIT3 Last ? Nelso Pass has always answered every question that I’ve asked…It might not be the same day, but he answers. I think you’ll enjoy a SIT-3 as I have. | |
| Should we care if a piece of equipment comes from a pet-free, kid-free, smoke-free home? @tcutter If a thread ever ended on a better note, I don't know how? +1 for dogs and cats | |
| Should we care if a piece of equipment comes from a pet-free, kid-free, smoke-free home? The scenario I see is called anti-intellectualism. All based on books with "isms" in the titles and conspiracy theories. Anyone with a platform thinks they are an expert. | |

| Should we care if a piece of equipment comes from a pet-free, kid-free, smoke-free home? I heard orange makeup destroys the accuracy of a system.🤔 | |
| Are You a Swifty? I would have thought this thread would bust into full Jerry Springer. 😁 3.5 million pieces of Vinyl definitely helps the Analogue cause. Travis Kelce is not an average Tight End. Any Venue in America would love to bring her untalented ass (sarc... | |
| Ethernet cables @audphile1 I like boats are we Trawling now? There are no silly questions regarding Audiophile salvation!😎 | |
| USB Cable mrskeptic needs to join the circus- When I decided to get back into Hifi, I bought a DAC-it. While hooking it up I realized the DAC did not come with a cable, so I ran to the local Micro Center and bought a $15.00 USB printer cable. It was the mo... | |
| Help with Cary SLP-98 @yogiboy I'll get my measuring gauge out and measure the opening.I actually emailed Cary and they gave me a link to an eight pin socket saver that didn't fit. | |
| Help with Cary SLP-98 Correct, Linlai has some very good sounding tubes that have glass shoulders that do not allow it to fit in the Cary SLP-98. | |
| Pass Labs 1st Watt Rundown I have both the Pass XA25 and the First Watt SIT-3. They are both good amps in very different ways. The Pass is clear/liquid and transparent, the SIT-3 is very good with tone and texture. I think the Pass pairs better with conventional speakers an... | |
| Affordable SS that sound like Tubes @tonydennison - I have an xA25, but think the First watt sit 3, with a tube front end sounds the best with my Cornwall lV’s. |
